In other news, Monica and Jamie have appeared together in Azur Lane, as Nagato and Furutaka, respectively. No idea how important those characters are, but that's another role for each of them this season.
Even knowing Rial, Marchi, or their disgusting ilk have voiced a character in the dub makes me angry. I only watch subs, but I'll never be able to see their names again linked to characters I like without feeling sick. What's even worse is many of these cretins appear in JRPGs where you can't change the voice setting to Japanese. Can't much play Persona 4 and hear Yukiko's lines without thinking of the horrible individual behind the microphone.

I know there's without a doubt plenty of abuses in the Japanese voice acting industry and always has been, but I like the face of professionalism you see there so you don't associate the VA with stupid shit (except in rare cases like Aya Hirano). Ideally there'd be a way for people to maintain strict professionalism in their public communication while still being able to sound the alarm on the actual sex pests in the industry (Japan had Johnny Kitagawa with his casting couch for boy bands) where the punishment for being a vindictive bitch and lying about serious shit like Rial, Marchi, or Specht have done is an effective blacklisting.
They weren't bitching when it was just them relentlessly smearing Vic every fucking day for months without any response by Vic himself.
I love how ANN seems to be in communication with Fuhrer Jaysean and gets court documents the minute they appear with an article ready within the hour even if it's for something utterly minor like Vic's subpoena to appear yet still claims to be "unbiased" with "high journalistic standards" hence why they never did anything for the Funileaks. If they were an utter joke before, they're even more ridiculous now. But I guess it's par for journalism in the current year.
 
In slightly related to WW news, saw that Jeff Goldblum stood up for due process re: Woody Allen and put a number of wamin on suicide watch for even insinuating such a thing.

Some of the more excessive Tumblr types worship him as a sex icon so this is delicious for me to watch unfold.

Haven't they already been exposed for ploting in their discord on how to get the Salvation Army's shelters to refuse the excess money from the GFM?

Yep. Vic man bad.
 
"If Vic was such a nice man he wouldn't allign himself with Nick who's as bad as Hitler"

If y'all were such defenders of women you wouldn't allign yourself with a wife beater like Ron. You wouldn't allign yourself with Amanda who wished rape on a girl (and is a pothead).

Hasn't Hero Hei gone on about some shit about Azur Lane being the new thing that gets SJW's panties in a twist?

Even in the few times I read ANN before this saga, the site always came across as just dumping press releases and reporting box office numbers. It's not like ANN had any real competition for title of "America's #1 anime news site".

Let's not forget Jaimie who hoped a child would come forward saying they were assaulted by vic since all their stories about him were bullshit.

Wait what? They see him as a sex icon? I mean, I enjoy his work and all, but a sex icon? I'm sorry, but no.

Maybe they got cast because Marchie and Rial would displace as much water as a heavy cruiser/battle ship if you shove them back into the sea. Nagato would be the flagship of its faction (which doesn't say much about screen time), Furutaka is a side char. The show itself is kinda mediocre.
 
This was taken from Mega's Min Con and posted by Elise Baughman on her Twitter handle. So much beauty in this photo.

Who are these women? Maybe they're nice folks, but if I was a restaurant manager, and I saw this party of Karens walk in, I'd be sweating.

That dude drops panties like a motherfucker. Are you a man? If so, let me remind you that women aren't like us when it comes to sexual attraction. Some obese dangerhairs will try and tell you men and women are exactly equal, but it just ain't true.
 
Isn't it more that as fandoms grow they attracted certain kinds of people that don't actually care about the property but more want to police it? This whole "toxic" fandom I've only noticed myself when those types start trying to insert themselves in something they clearly don't care about because it's the new hip thing and call the existing fanbase toxic for thinking that this policing is stupid. Whenever I see people complaining about a show being sexist or something they start calling the fanbase toxic when they get told to "just don't watch the show and stop bitching." They find problems where there aren't any so they can prop up the whole "SEE, we obviously need to police this fandom because stuff like this is still around!"

It wasn't even that long ago where you'd get weird looks for even saying you watched anime and now that it's more trendy you see these people latch on to it. Exact same problem happening in D&D now that it's "cool" with people talking about "opening up the community" being the same people who made fun of those same D&D players when it wasn't the cool thing to do.

I don't know, I feel like a grumpy old hipster. Anime especially, people that have been watching for a long time have a very strong emotional attachment to because, being frank here, usually they were the weird kid that didn't fit in that used anime to cope. Of course these people are going to lash back at you when they see you attacking something important to them, especially when you do it in the typical condescending "I know what's best for this community" even though you only joined in when it became okay and even trending to talk about how much you liked anime. There's always been fighting in the anime community but the difference is that it was all in-fighting between fellow fans about stupid things like best anime or dubs, it gave them a way of interacting with people that were probably just as awkward as they were. It was never toxic.
What these people label as toxic is long time anime fans fighting back against an outsider to the community trying to change things that don't need to be changed. They've heard it all before with people mocking them for watching that "weird asian crap" growing up and aren't fooled by you attempts to hide your distaste for anime underneath the garbage "I just want anime to be more inclusive!"

I make sure to pop in any time Tomino gives his opinion on other anime/manga creators because ANN's forum for the article are always a treat. A lot of them getting very upset about their sacred cows being attacked and whining that Tomino of all people is just doing it because he's starving to stay relevant.
 
Chuck keeps liking and retweeting peace and love bs while admonishing ISWV for literally anything he can. Yet he always remains silent when some human trash tells Vic and his fans to die.... Really activates the almonds.
Just scrolled through some spergy argument on twitter; the KV spergs kept gloating about how Vic's fired, how he won't ever get hired again, how he won't be able to attend conventions again and see his fans, how he'll go bankrupt because of the lawsuit and so on. No Chuck in sight to remind them to be kind. Yet he comes running when an ISWV sperg posts a dumb meme to scold them.

I wouldn't be as annoyed with his behavior if he called out both sides. Then the whole healing the community thing would still be annoying, but would also feel actually genuine. Now it just feels very hollow and fake. I hope he actually responds to emosh, so someone can point out the hypocrisy to him. Well, maybe he's aware...

I am a man, and he is an attractive guy, but I didn't realize he was considered THAT. Learn something new everyday, I suppose.

Elise Baughman, Linda Young, Tiffany Vollmer, and Stephanie Nadolny. They were at the same convention as Vic this past weekend.

Speaking of Miss Baughman, rabid KickVic activist and alleged rapist Neil Kaplan is going to be on her YouTube show today

Every time I think I’ve seen the last of this guy, he keeps fucking coming back.

coolman229 was at Mega Mini Con (he’s the guy who made the Fist of the Beard Star meme) he told me that he and a friend went to the con and saw Elise speaking with Vic while they were setting up tables. She even seemed completely relaxed around Vic according to him. He said he couldn’t hear what they were talking about however.

I do know Elise is an interviewer for her show on YouTube, Anime Adventures, so it seems like she truly is being a nuetral party it seems and is just doing her job interviewing voice actors. I met her once at a con, Kamehacon to be exact, she seems pretty cool. She didn’t set of any weird vibes like Chris and Sean gave me in the past at cons (hindsight is a bitch)
